A Career College That Knows This City

Our hands-on training puts you on the same equipment you’ll use in the field, in small classes with instructors who’ve actually done the job. Programs include externships at real local employers like Ochsner LSU Health, CVS, and Sabre Industries, and many of those placements turn into job offers before graduation.

Training was great! It was very hands-on throughout training. If I ran into issues while I was out working in the field, I would be able to come in and work them out and get new ideas from my instructors.
